I have to stop sometimes and reread this. I love the Christmas Season and want my children to have good memories not rush rush rush!
Twas The Night Before Christmas... Mom Style
>>
>>Twas the night before Christmas,
>>when all thru the abode
>>Only one creature was stirring,
>>& she was cleaning the commode.
>>
>>The children were finally sleeping, all snug in their beds, while
>>visions of N-64 & Barbie, flipped through their heads.
>>
>>The dad was snoring in front of the TV,
>>with a half-constructed bicycle propped on his knee.
>>So only the mom heard the reindeer hooves clatter,
>>which made her sigh,
>>"Now what is the matter?"
>>
>>With toilet bowl brush still clutched in her hand,
>>She descended the stairs,
>>& saw the old man.
>>He was covered with ashes & soot,
>>which fell with a shrug,
>>"Oh great," muttered the mom,
>>"Now I have to clean the rug."
>>
>>
>>"Ho Ho Ho!" cried Santa, "I'm glad you're awake."
>>"Your gift was especially difficult to make."
>>"Thanks, Santa, but all I want is time alone."
>>"Exactly!" he chuckled, "So, I've made you a clone."
>>
>>A clone?" she muttered, "What good is that?"
>>"Run along, Santa, I've no time for chit chat."
>>Then out walked the clone - The mother's twin,
>>Same hair, same eyes, same double chin.
>>
>>
>>"She'll cook, she'll dust, she'll mop every mess.
>>You'll relax, take it easy,
>>watch The Young & The Restless."
>>"Fantastic!" the mom cheered.
>>"My dream has come true!"
>>"I'll shop, I'll read, I'll sleep a night through!"
>>
>>
>> >From the room above, the youngest did fret.
>>"Mommy?! Come quickly, I'm scared & I'm wet."
>>The clone replied, "I'm coming, sweetheart."
>>"Hey," the mom smiled, "She sure knows her part."
>>
>>The clone changed the small one & hummed her tune,
>>as she bundled the child in a blanket cocoon.
>>"You're the best mommy ever. I really love you."
>>The clone smiled & sighed, "And I love you, too."
>>
>>The mom frowned & said, "Sorry, Santa, no deal."
>>That's my child's LOVE she is trying to steal."
>>Smiling wisely Santa said. "To me it is clear,
>>Only one loving mother is needed here."
>>The mom kissed her child & tucked her in bed.
>>"Thank You, Santa, for clearing my head.
>>I sometimes forget, it won't be very long,
>>when they'll be too old for my cradle & song."
>>The clock on the mantle began to chime.
>>Santa whispered to the clone, "It works every time."
>>With the clone by his side Santa said "Goodnight.
>>Merry Christmas, dear Mom, You will be all right."
>>
>>
>>Sometimes we need reminding of what life is all about. Especially
>>at
>>times
>>during the Holiday season, when all we seem to do is clean and bake
>>and
>>shop and and and and and and and....You get the picture, I'm sure.
>>So
>>stop for a moment and hug that little one so special, whether
>>he/she
>>is 2
>>months or 22 years, or even older than that. For they are the Gift
>>that
>>God
>>gave us in life...and what a gift to be treasured, far above any
>>other!
>>May
>>the real meaning of Thanksgiving and Christmas be with you all this
>>year.
